Today, we begin a deep conversation designed to create a culture within schools and districts where all students value education and career/life planning and where all educators see themselves as important contributors to their school`s comprehensive education and career/life planning program`.

We are developing a shared understanding and commitment to supporting ALL students in achieving their preferred future. Let’s take our first step!
Reform of Ontario’s Financial Aid System
What is OSAP?
OSAP includes:
Loans Grants
Who is eligible for OSAP?
To be eligible for OSAP, students must be:
protected person
OSAP-approved program and school
degree or diploma program
Can students receive OSAP if they study outside of Ontario?
Yes, students can receive OSAP if they enroll in a public college or university program outside of Ontario. If they want to study outside of Canada, students can still be eligible to receive partial OSAP funding.
OSAP aid depends on a student’s unique circumstances.
Educational Costs
Books Tuition Living expenses
Financial Contribution
Students Parents Scholarships and bursaries
Financial Need
Limitations of the former system
Number and complexity of grants are not well understood, and can be confusing to students. Many low-income students are disadvantaged because they are more likely to enroll in low- cost programs, which resulted in a larger proportion of OSAP aid as loans. Mature learners, and those with children, are not sufficiently supported with non-repayable grants and help with tuition costs. Parental contribution requirements toward the costs of a student’s education are high for middle-income families in Ontario. ‘Net’ tuition is largely unknown to students.
The new OSAP will make postsecondary education more accessible and affordable for all students.
No provincial student debt for students from families with annual income of $50,000 or less Increased clarity and transparency about the out-of-pocket cost of tuition Increased grants for mature and sole support students Improved ability to contain student debt by redirecting increased tax revenue to up-front grants
How much can students receive from OSAP?
Students and parents can go to ontario.ca/osap to find out how much they can get in OSAP loans and grants.
More generous OSAP assistance.
Ontario’s maximum OSAP assistance levels will be increased. $160/week $180/week for single students $360/week $450/week for married and sole support students Canada provides $210/week for all student types.
Maximum OSAP Assistance Levels 2016-17 2017-18 Weekly 34-week program Weekly 34-week program Single students $370 $12,580 $390 $13,260 Married / sole support students $570 $19,380 $660 $22,440
*Amounts based on both federal and provincial aid.
Tens of thousands of students will get free tuition starting fall 2017.
Free tuition = grants from OSAP that exceed the cost of average tuition
More than 210,000 students will receive free average tuition 4 out of 5 OSAP students with family incomes below $90,000 will receive free average tuition Nearly 85% of OSAP students will receive more grants Students from middle and higher income families may also receive more generous grants and loans
OSAP grants will be focused on offsetting the cost of tuition first. Students, and their families, should have a clear understanding of how much tuition actually costs when non-repayable aid is taken into account.
Net tuition
“Net tuition” is applying students OSAP non-repayable aid and institutional aid, if applicable, against their tuition fees.
Tuition

OSAP grants
$9,000

Manage financial assistance anywhere, anytime, on any device.
Ontario is redesigning OSAP for the digital age, making it faster, and easier to use, so that students can apply, check their status and manage their financial assistance anywhere, anytime, on any device.

“Many occupations with double-digit employment growth over the recovery were high-skilled, high-wage occupations, which usually require university or college education or apprenticeship training. Specifically, about three-quarters of all jobs created over the recovery required at least some college education or apprenticeship training.” (p. 10)
“... the nature of work itself is changing as the country transitions to a so-called knowledge economy that relies on a well-trained and highly educated workforce to produce value-added products and services. Those without the necessary skills could soon find themselves unemployable.”

Ontario’s continued economic prosperity depends on a highly skilled workforce that is diverse, adaptable and innovative.
A highly skilled and adaptable workforce will be the foundation of Ontario’s competitiveness and prosperity. A diverse and vibrant workforce is an asset that provides unique perspectives, fosters global competitiveness and creates opportunities for all Ontarians.
Highly Skilled Workforce (HSW) Vision
People from a young age are aware of all of the opportunities available to them, and they are given the opportunities to develop
competencies, and skills, and to have hands-on experiences that allow them to pursue their passion, no matter what pathway they choose to take.
People feel empowered to take responsibility for their own educational and career decisions and are committed to developing their

If postsecondary education and training benefits students in challenging times, and if the transformation of OSAP makes postsecondary education and training affordable, what are the non-financial barriers that still prevent students from participating in postsecondary education and training?
Barriers to Postsecondary Education and Training
– Tuition – Books and Supplies – Living Expenses

Why is it important that the transformation of OSAP happens now?
The transformation of OSAP responds to the realities of today’s
by helping more students and providing hope for a promising future to students who never imagined themselves benefiting from postsecondary education and training. “There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something better tomorrow”
